Hey, check it out, this is the first video of Chapter 1: The Accounting Equation. It's thrilling. You're going to love it!
Hello there, I'm Aaron. I designed and coded this site, recorded all these videos, and wrote all the practice problems. I got my Undergrad and Master's in Accounting and then went on to get my CPA License (exciting, right?). I worked at Ernst and Young for about a year but never really loved it, so I quit and became a programmer. I do love accounting though, and I love teaching it, which is why I made this site. Please feel free to reach out to me if you ever have any questions!
A couple of bits of info about the site:
- I've recorded 84 videos, which means you get 845 minutes of accounting (lucky you)
- There are 70 practice problems right now, and I'm always adding more.
- Those problems & videos cover all 11 chapters of Accy 201.
- You can email me anytime at [email protected].

Chapter 1
Introduction to Accounting
You definitely saved my grade in accounting, and you explained things very well.
— Nicholas C., Fall 2019
Chapter 2
Recording Transactions
This website helped me pass the class, which is a miracle. The videos were easier for me to understand than the textbook, my tutor, and my professor.
— Claire, Fall 2016
Chapter 3
Adjusting Accounts
Your site really saved my GPA and increased my understanding of accounting substantially.
— Bailey, Fall 2016

Thank you so much for the videos you put together. They are a tremendous help and I really appreciate all that you do!
— Conner, Fall 2015

I can learn a lot from your videos and they are easy to understand. I have a better understanding after watching your videos which also helped me get a better result for my previous semester.
— Olivia, Fall 2017
Chapter 7
Accounts Receivable and Bad Debts
These videos alone helped me get a B in accounting this semester. I didn't go to class at all. Thanks so much!
— Natalia, Spring 2016
Chapter 8
Long Term Assets
The videos were clear and easy to understand and the breakdown into short simple videos was nice. That way you weren't having to watch an hour long lecture when all you needed was 5 minutes of information.
— Kyle, Spring 2016
Chapter 9
Current Liabilities
I could not have finished this course without your help. I really appreciate how concise you are with your words and how you take the time to create clear visuals when explaining concepts.
— Emma, Fall 2016
Chapter 10
Long Term Liabilities
I seriously can't put into words how grateful I am to have found your videos for Financial Accounting last semester. If it wasn't for your website I could not have passed that class, my professor was awful and you taught it in such a clear and understandable way!
— Monear, Spring 2019
Chapter 11
Capital Stock
I didn’t find your site until second half of the semester last spring and wish that I had used it all along!
— Hunt, Spring 2019
